Status: offline 		I know they sell a PNP version, I'm just saying I started out with their equipment (A Challenger and 27B). I might just slap one of those planes together but I'll probably buy the body parts and throw my own gear and motor into it. If the body parts are too expensive (normaly not from them) then maybe I'll just hotwire a homemade one out of foam. It's a great looking plane.

Status: offline 		Looking at the Hobbyzone website on the PNP you have to supply Tx, Rx, LiPo, and Charger.

Not near of a good deal as the RTF considering the LiPo alone is $59.99 on their site.

So you get the Tx, Rx, and Charger free...basically!

I am looking for a parkflyer and was ready to order the FW190 but saw this with the LiPo, nice Tx, and Brushless.

I currently fly only nitro and have a 9CAPS I was going to use with the Trojan but since the package deal is such a buy that is what I will go with.

I am anxiously waiting for this to come out. Has Parkzone had any issues with their first releases in the past? Or should I wait until the bugs have been worked out? Any other special equipment needed for the LiPo? The charger says it has a balancer.

I am wanting a parkflyer so I dont have to load up and go to the field, I want to run to the park for a quick flight during the day.

I put mine on back order at the LHS....and I'm first on the list for when they arrive! I can't hardly wait. I dont expect to see mine until maybe early August. I've got the PNP coming for $135.99
